Just went through this myself - paid for expedited shipping. Fast forward 3 weeks later and my package was delivered today. Traveled from coast to coast. ...
Maternal great grandfather was in the 101st airborne/506th PIR Jumped on d-day and was in the Bulge He died in the 80s so I never met him but my great grandmother lived until 2014. She said he rarely spoke about the war, maybe a funny story or two but none of the hard times. She did say that...

From reading this post, you've been more than accommodating. If his place is in that poor of condition, nothing will keep the cows from tearing into yours.....just short of a new 6' net wire fence. Cows are creatures of habit and will continue to tear in..... From your description of his land.....
Tons of people - expect to pay 3-5K more than current value. A lot of people raise their hand a couple of times just to feel like they're in the mix....no intention of purchasing but raise the price, quick. The last one I went to had a lot of really good ranch type horses. What are you looking...

Any tips on finding local scrambles within 2 hours of Baton Rouge? ...

Breed composition plays a big role in their ability to survive in hot environments. The cattle in that part of the country are a mix of continental breeds; angus, hereford, etc. Those cattle are built to withstand long winters, snow and ice. They're not suited for 100+ temps. The cattle along th...
Every potential pit bull owner needs to watch this video. These dogs aren't meant to be a couch ornament - their drive to work will always come out. They're willing to take a beating (obviously) and still keep going. :banghead: :banghead:...
You'd rather have 4 quarters than a 100 pennies. As you age, this becomes more relevant by the day....
I work in industrial sales and use hot shots quite often. The standard truck hot shot market is saturated but there's money to be made in 40' flatbed trailer loads. ...
I can't remember a better NFR in terms of round 10 deciding the world champion. I believe it was that way for the bareback, steer wrestling, saddle bronc and barrel racing. :usa: :usa: The Wright brothers are unstoppable. They really put on a show. ...
We always had horses growing up - my dad would buy problem horses and make me ride them to gentle them down, then sell them. I was about 12 or 13 when he bought a big paint gelding. That SOB was an outlaw to deal with - he'd paw you, bite you, kick you and buck at the drop of hat. Dad gets t...
I spent Thanksgiving at a buddies place in college - he lived in the mid west and we used thanksgiving break as a reason to go hunting. Fast forward to thanksgiving dinner....the black sheep of the family was a crackhead uncle that was fresh out of rehab. All other family members seemed normal...

Managing my own herd of about 2000 beef cows ...
I'm envious of the fact that you can get close enough to get great pics. I have a herd of F1 striped cows and they're about like dealing with a rattlesnake. They do really well in the field but once you shut a gate behind them, it gets western, fast. :lol: :lol:...

I can agree with both sides of the aisle - that's the beauty of freedom of choice and not drawing a line in the sand. I agree with you. I went 7 months without getting the jab then made a decision based on my own personal research. I'm not saying my opinion is correct, but it's my opinion, and I...
This is the 3rd thread you've dropped these gifs - fine work sir :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:...
